Batch Processing

Batch processing for banking occurs in the Global Payroll core application and in the country extension.

To process bank payment information:

  1. Finalize the pay run on the Payroll/Absence Run Control page.

    Before running the banking process, you must finalize the payroll run or approve the items to pay.

  2. Run the banking process, using the Payment Preparation page.

    The banking process is a batch job that takes the results of payroll calculations and populates the payment table (GP_PAYMENT), which includes details on each recipient. It identifies the recipient, the amount owed, the source bank, and the account number.

    Note:

    You must run the banking process in the same order in which you run your payrolls. For example, if you have finalized a payroll for both November and December and try to run the banking process on the December payroll before running it on the November payroll, the process will result in an error.

  3. Run the local country batch process.

    Each country has unique file format requirements for transmitting data electronically. Individual processes have been developed for each country that extract data from the payment file and format it appropriately.

Note:

For more information about local country batch processing, see the banking section in the corresponding Global Payroll country extension documentation.

You can view the results of the banking process (step 2) and the results of the local country batch process (step 3) using the Review Payments by Cal Group component.
